All signs point to Jay Hieron going to the UFC in the immediate future

For those of you who don’t know, Jay Hieron was screwed. Actually, Jay Hieron has been screwed on several occasions from 2008-2010. Hieron must have picked on God in a former life. If you see Jay Hieron loading up a shotgun and aiming it directly at the good luck fairy, don’t be surprised. Jay rocked

Bellator XXV – Fight Night Gallery

For those people who haven’t learned the entire Roman numeral system from watching a variety of NFL Superbowl games growing up, XXV is the equivalent of twenty-five. I know some of you were unaware of that, it’s alright. I’ll keep your identity confidential and will most likely blackmail you at a later point in life.

Mayhem Miller is rocking a shirt that will send shockwaves in the 209

I was walking in a store the other day and saw a ‘breakfast cookie’. Cookies for breakfast, it’s about time. I didn’t need an excuse before, but now I have a real one.  If I saw this ‘Don’t be scared homie’ shirt in that same store, I would have purchased it and mailed it to

So it looks like Strikeforce is changing their logo…

I was browsing through EA Sports media assets and noticed that a set of screenshots were published August 17th but not necessarily publicized by EA Sports or Strikeforce. Essentially, it’s just a group of screen captures illustrating the ‘Belt Race and Fight Card’ features within the upcoming game. However, I did notice two trademarked images

Now that Jon Fitch is a married man, he’s partying like a rockstar

Sometime this month, Jon Fitch was married and at some point last weekend, these pictures were taken. Chances are whatever recreational activity you engaged in this past Saturday, it pales in comparison to the amount of partying Jon Fitch did. Massive props for Fitch choosing the stubby Red Stripe, the only beer in which bottle

The Friday Morning MMA Link Party

It’s Friday morning and the last thing you want to do is be stuck in your office/classroom/mother’s basement when you’re on the verge of getting belligerently drunk tonight. It’s cool. Start the party ahead of schedule with our Friday Morning MMA Link Party since it’s what all the cool kids are doing. Peer pressure, got

Semmy Schilt going to the UFC is completely bogus

I’ve never been struck by Semmy Schilt. Hopefully, that statement will hold true for the rest of my life. Just based on the physical reactions of everyone at the K-1 2009 Grand-Prix, getting kicked by Semmy is like packing the entire universe inside of a shotgun and aiming it directly at your head. Getting hit

The new Dream 16 poster looks like a giant double-rainbow

Compared to other Dream posters, this one is by far the most coherent. In fact, it almost looks like it was created by the same guys who makes all those NBA All-Star Game posters. From the poster, it looks like we can expect Kid Yamamoto, Mousasi, Sakuraba, Tokoro, Minowaman, Shinya Aoki, Mizuno and I think

Check out Anthony Pettis’ unbelievable Aú Batido from WEC 50

So it’s not quite an Aú Batido, but it’s the closest thing we’ll see in real-time on cable television. Granted, a few hours ago I had no idea what an Aú Batido was until Bloody Elbow broke it down in an article filled with enough .gifs to make slower computers laugh in processor disbelief. In

Ricardo Almeida is helping autism, one paddle at a time

Five days after a fight in the UFC, most fighters are generally sprawled out on a sofa covered in ice-packs and taking pain medicines. They’re probably thirty pounds heavier than they were at weigh-ins, covered in cuts & bruises and surviving on a steady diet of bacon cheeseburgers & Bud Light (or poutine & Labatt

Check out our Bellator XXV weigh-in gallery

The Bellator XXV weigh-in room was hot, really friggin hot. It started a bit late and if hungriness was measured by crankiness, then Dan Hornbuckle probably couldn’t wait to clear out the local buffet. The Handler made it very clear that he was hungry and wanted the weigh-ins to start on time. Luckily, the commission

Forrest Griffin hopes he doesn’t have to fight Jon Jones

I don’t blame Forrest Griffin for not wanting to fight Jon ‘Bones’ Jones. I’m sure it’s much like my irrational fear of getting sour cream on my carnitas at some taco franchise owned by a trust-fund baby born & raised in Greenwich, CT. Nothing sucks more than undertaking something & knowing ahead of time what

It’s time for a little WEC 50 action tonight

Anthony Njokuani and his infamous Horodecki headkick, Ricardo Lamas with his flying knee of instant napping and Javier Vazquez and his…pink shorts, all of which you will not be able to see at WEC 47 tonight on the Versus Network. Preliminary fights is MMA’s way of saying ‘Dude, you really should have purchased a ticket’.
